For high populations of deer use multiple electric wires at 10 20 and 30 inches 25 50 and 76 cm from the ground.
Attractive deer proof fencing takes a bit more time and money than wire netting or a single strand electric fence.
If your deer are especially sneaky use 2 electric fences.
Place your deer fencing on the ground outside your line of posts starting about a foot before the first post and unwind it 3 or 4 posts down the fence line.
Set your posts around the perimeter of the garden.
If you need to build a deer fence around your garden use deer fencing made of mesh that measures 1 77 x 1 96 inches.
These will need to be set into the ground by digging holes at each location with a post hole digger.
Our information pages are set up for that purpose.
Drive a 6 to 8 foot post into the ground about every 15 feet along the perimeter of the fence then tie the mesh to the posts with zip ties.
The inner fence should be set at 50 inches 127 cm from the ground and an outer perimeter 38 inches 96 5 cm from the inner set at 15 and 43 inches 38 and 109 cm.
